He did hot wonder that his Majesty's Minis ters shOuld - be anxious to protect those whom they - employed, b;tt they shotittl be so far impartial as to extend that'feeling to .othr.o . quarters.

On that very day too (2d Pecember), when Morla had himself entervd upon 4 tetms of espitulation with the enemy. It was then lait, that his design was to entrap Sir J.
